Mississauga Mayor Mayor Carolyn Parrish made waves after stepping down from her local police board and criticizing the police’s spiralling budget. Rosé Bautista sat down with her to discuss her resignation, and the alternatives to policing. Full interview:

@carolynhparrish @DesmondCole I'm shocked, imagine policy being decided by expert advice and having compassion be a consideration. Been a long time since I've been pleasantly surprised by a Canadian politician.

@carolynhparrish @DesmondCole Can she be mayor of Toronto please? 😭

@carolynhparrish @DesmondCole @carolynparrish is demented, and she is a vile racist who should be abolished from politics. Desmond Cole is a race-baiting, defund-the-police, pro-intifada BLM escapee who likes to slum with the victim class. @TheBreachMedia is a fitting home for this author and subject both.

Desmond Cole worked to end streets checks. When they ended thug gun crime exploded. Cole has blood on his hands. DC worked to get liaison officers out of troubled TDSB schools. Now they are violent sht holes where kids who want to do well can't. DC is an absolute POS human.

@carolynhparrish @DesmondCole Hey, @jonkay - did you forget to cry and be a bitch about this one?

@carolynhparrish @DesmondCole @carolynparrish's legacy.

@carolynhparrish @DesmondCole How is that working for the Palestinians who are teaching their kids undeveloped minds hate inside their homes? How many hours and $100’s of thousands of dollars has the Gaza plaza cost taxpayers. Mayor Parrish your yth hub is a GOD send but there R some bjg unaddressed issues.

@carolynhparrish @DesmondCole Desmond Cole and Carolyn Parrish……two vile sub humans that deserve each other. GTA would be so much better if these two clowns never existed.

@carolynhparrish @DesmondCole Carolyn Parrish @carolynhparrish for PM!

@carolynhparrish @DesmondCole Accused criminals are probably not the best source of insight about policing policy. They have some skin in the game, so to speak.
